Mission statement:	The Diplomatic Council (DC) was established as a Global Think Tank with the objective to serve as a bridge between diplomacy on the one hand and economy and society on the other hand. Members committed and dedicated to the Diplomatic Council strongly believe that Commercial Diplomacy is the solid foundation of international understanding and a more peaceful interaction amongst nations. A thriving economy bringing prosperity to mankind is one of the best guarantor for peace. This revelation was the motivation for the Diplomatic Council to translate its goal of promoting international understanding into an economic mandate. The underlying methodology of a global business network is linked to the diplomatic communication level of the different nations. In this context, those experts and leaders engaged in the Diplomatic Council play a key role in consulting the ambassadors on how the economic principles can be transferred into the global diplomatic network. Vice versa the ambassadors shall use their diplomatic competency to warrant that the economic activities ultimately shall promote understanding amongst nations and safeguard peace. Against this background, the Diplomatic Council welcomes those personalities from diplomacy, economy and society who enjoy high degrees of acceptance, high levels of expertise and who pursue the same visions and values.
